Juanita Rausch

Juanita Rausch earned her Master degree in Geology in 2008 at the University of Hamburg (Germany) and her PhD degree on the field of volcanology in 2014 at the University of Fribourg (Switzerland). In her PhD she studied the processes of particle (volcanic ash) formation and resulting eruption mechanisms based on quantitative morphological and chemical approaches (SEM/EDX, fractal analysis and micro computed x-ray tomography). She was between 2010 – 2014 teaching assistant and between 2014 – 2016 senior assistant at the University of Fribourg. Since 2014 she is working at the enterprise Particle Vision on environmental questions with a special emphasis on the morpho-chemical characterization and source apportionment of natural and human-caused dust. Currently, Juanita Rausch is co-owner and director of Particle Vision.
